INTRODUCTION
X HE NAME that the Museum has given to its present exhibition is intended
to reflect alike the miracle produced by intelligent collaboration between
artists and technicians, and the undiscerning, sometimes even undiscriminat-
ing, response to the miracle. In this, as in so many other fields, one is
reminded of the country-woman who was vaguely annoyed at all the new
bustle and stir brought by wartime needs to her remote and isolated region:
"Why does the Government have to build a factory to make TNT? Why
don't they just go somewhere and buy it?"
We all just go and buy our printed yard-goods; and many of us let the
matter rest tliere. Aside from a perfectly human feeling that we need not
trouble ourselves over ways and means as long as we succeed in satisfying
our immediate requirements, there are of course many deterrents to a more
detailed examination of the subject. The chemistry of dyestuffs, the varied
nature of fibres and woven fabrics, the complexities of machinery, and other
technical considerations, may lie outside the limits of our knowledge; and
the labyrinthine realms of designing, styling, merchandising and promotion
present further mystifications.
But the miracle confronts us steadily. Although it dazzles us with its
brilliance, it is no mirage; an admired part of our daily life, it is also the
mirror of our dreams. The material brought together for this exhibition
provides a selection of the almost endless quantity of textiles currently pro-
duced by a variety of means; it permits a survey of contemporary and past
methods of production; and it shows something of the varied approaches
that have been made to the problems of design and manufacture, in earlier
centuries no less than in our own day.
In such a vast segment of what is after all one of the largest of the world's
enterprises — the production of textile fabrics — the approaches are indeed
many and varied. The aim is simple enough: to relieve the monotony of
surfaces unadorned. But in how many ways can this be accomplished! From
the considered abstraction of essential forms to the most literal rendering of
historic events; the poetic, the naturalistic, the imaginative, the didactic;
even, in the Chinese student's "cribbing" handkerchief printed with Con-
fucian texts, the mnemonic — anything, it appears, can be printed on textiles,
and everything has been.
3
The variety in types of design is equalled by the variety in methods of
production; from the simple application of colors directly to the fabric,
through all the combinations and variations of resist printing, mordant
printing, and discharge printing, the printer has a further range of choices
given to him by the differing properties of fibres, natural and man-made.
A third, and still richer, series of variable factors is presented by the diversity
of purposes served by printed fabrics. We may recognize the two main cate-
gories, of apparel fabrics and decorative fabrics, only to become immediately
aware of an infinity of specialized branches, each calling for suitable qualities
of design and appropriate methods of execution.
In the long history of textile printing there have been periods of harmony
between theme and execution, and an equal number of moments of dis-
harmony. In earlier centuries no less than in our own time are to be found
supremely successful fabrics, gratifying to the beholder equally in the char-
acter and scale of their ornamentation, the quality of their coloring, and the
suitability of these elements to the means chosen for their execution. As an
example may be cited the fourteenth-century Indian fragment in the Mu-
seum's collection that has furnished a decorative motif for the cover of this
Catalogue; the broad treatment of pattern suitable to printing from a block
has been no bar to grace and delicacy, and the design itself gives pleasure in
its timeless simplicity. At the other end of the scale may be placed the
"toiles de Jouy," and similar cotton fabrics printed in the later eighteenth
century, in which the rigidities of reproductive copperplate-engraving all but
stifle the design which initially had been drawn so delightfully by the artist.
The same gamut is run in the prints of the present moment; and as the
repertory of techniques today is richly varied, so is the range of choices
infinitely richer than it has ever been. We produce our failures each season,
as is attested by the number of "factory outlet" shops on the side streets; and
we produce our brilliant successes. But always — this year, last century, or a
thousand years ago — success is dependent upon an understanding of the
elements involved and a respect for the procedures by which ideas are
materialized. The incomprehension of a Renaissance craftsman, who saw
in textile printing nothing more than a process for cheaply copying a cut
velvet, is matched in our own day by a converter who extracts familiar ele-
ments from contemporary easel-paintings and stamps them on endless lengths
of cloth; in both cases, an opportunity has been lost, down in the depths
where copying is substituted for original creation.
It is precisely this harmony, this compatibility between ends and means,
that the present assemblage of material is desired to illustrate. Special exhibi-
tions always represent a form of wish-fulfillment on the part of the organizing
museum, enabling it to marshall a quantity of selected material in a manner
not ordinarily possible; and the present display is no exception. Based on
the not inconsiderable holdings of the Cooper Union Museum, which for
the occasion have been supplemented by the generous loans of many friendly
individuals and museums, this exhibit endeavors to trace the history of textile
printing through more than a millennium; and in so doing, to permit the
viewer to form his own conclusions about the nature of the art here
displayed.
One sees similar techniques used in periods widely separated in time, and
one sees them temporarily abandoned in favor of other, and in some cases
inferior, methods of production. Again, one sees great variation in the
subject-matter of textile ornamentation, and in the approach to problems
of design. Sometimes the printer is satisfied in the arbitrary, unsympathetic
and almost brutal imposition of decoration unsuited alike in scale, colora-
tion, and quality of pigment to the woven fabric that he would adorn. More
often, however, agreeable and harmonious prints are produced; and although
only a minute fraction of the textiles of earlier centuries has survived to our
day, it may safely be said that the best work of our contemporaries is superior
to that of our ancestors.
As has been noted above, a far wider range of techniques and materials
is available for today's production; but this (as the earlier nineteenth century
discovered in its own case!) is not the determining factor in the superiority
of today's design. The "miracle," as it has been designated, has been wrought
by more subtle means; we now rejoice not only in mastery of material
resources but in a growing power of design analysis that permits us to adjust
to the statement we would make the manner in which we make it. The
sensitive eye is now quick to detect affinities between qualities of color and
qualities of weave; with equal awareness we recognize the inherent suit-
ability of linear ornament, or of color areas, to one or another kind of fabric
destined to serve this purpose or that. There is, in short, an essential prop-
erty or characteristic of textile printing quite distinct from any other method
of textile ornamentation; and today at last this distinction is more generally
observed by the designers and producers of printed textiles.
It would be interesting to speculate upon the reasons for this improvement.
They are assuredly numerous, and many would be difficult to establish
beyond controversy. It seems clear, however, that in all this development a
great part has been played by the extension of horizons that has characterized
our century. We have pushed our way, in numbers, into corners of the
globe seen by but a few of our ancestors; we have been interested in learning
what makes the wheels turn; we have brought home with us heads full of
new ideas and trunks full of mementoes to serve our further study. We have
also come to realize that some of the more solid pleasures of a round-the-
5
world cruise are to be had right at home, in the museums that are per-
manently engaged in the business of widening horizons and of providing
material to explain what man does and has done well.
Along with many others, the Cooper Union Museum for nearly sixty years
has played its part, in maintaining and steadily developing its design resources
and its means of making them available to all who find them useful. It has
seemed to the Museum particularly appropriate that this, the largest exhibi-
tion it has organized, should be devoted to an art so well represented in its
collections and so well developed in our own day. The exhibition is offered
to its visitors as evidence of the Museum's unfailing desire to serve designers
and producers, and it is offered in deep gratitude to all those whose generous
collaboration and support have made the exhibition possible.
